(ESCD) when you exit Setup if you have installed a new add-on Card and the system reconfiguration has

Disabled.

Resources Controlled By

The Award Plug and Play BIOS has the capacity to automatically configure all of the boot and Plug and Play

compatible devices. However, this capability means absolutely nothing unless you are using a Plug and

Play operating system such as going into each of the submenus that follows this field. The choices are Auto

4.13 PC Health Status

When main boards support hardware monitoring, this item lets you monitor the parameters for critical

voltages, critical temperatures, and fan speeds. These are the read only items.

After you have read the PC Health Status, press the <ESC> key to go back to the main program screen.

4.14 Load Fail-Safe Defaults

This option opens a dialog box that lets you install fail-safe defaults for all appropriate items in the whole

setup utility. Press the <Y> key and then <Enter> to install the defaults. Press the <N> key and then

<Enter> to not install the defaults.

Use this option if you have changed your system and it does not operate correctly or does not power up.
